Abstract

<h3>Study Objective</h3> To demonstrate Part I of multi-quadrant robotic assisted abdominal primary cytoreductive surgery for Stage IIIC epithelial ovarian cancer. <h3>Design</h3> A prospective single patient underwent robotic assisted cytoreductive surgery. Docking time for pelvic and abdominal dissection was recorded. The multiple procedures that patient underwent was recorded for operative time along with intraoperative complications and postoperative complication, estimated blood loss, and length of hospitalization. <h3>Setting</h3> Tertiary hospital. <h3>Patients or Participants</h3> Patient is a 56-year-old female presents with abdominal pain. CT scan showed no ascites soft tissue mass in the right hepatic gutter omental mass with minimal pelvic fluid and pelvic mass. CA 125 was 533. <h3>Interventions</h3> Robotic Xi. <h3>Measurements and Main Results</h3> The abdominal docking time was 2 minutes and 30 seconds. The pelvic docking time which was the time from de-docking after completion of abdominal dissection to rotating the boom to re-docking for pelvic dissection was 5 minutes and 30 seconds. Total operative time for both pelvic and abdominal dissection was 246 minutes. The operative time for right diaphragm peritonectomy 30 minutes and resection of omental caking with complete omentectomy was 68 minutes. The pelvic dissection which consisted of en bloc modified posterior exenteration procedure with total intracorporal sigmoid rectal anastomosis was 126 minutes. A complete cytoreductive surgery with no gross residual was achieved. EBL 200 cc and length of hospitalization was 4 days. There was no intraoperative or postoperative complication. <h3>Conclusion</h3> Robotic assisted multi-quadrant surgery is feasible to achieve upper abdominal, abdominal and pelvic procedures to achieve an optimal cytoreductive surgery for stage IIIc ovarian cancer.
